Construction & Design:

The KW Variant 2 coilovers feature stainless steel strut housings from the ‘Inox-Line’ series, providing exceptional corrosion resistance and a rust-free finish even after extensive use and exposure to harsh environments. The height adjustment mechanism utilizes a durable polyamid composite collar with a stainless steel insert, ensuring reliable adjustment capability over many years without damage from dirt or brake dust.

Each coilover is engineered with a twin-tube damper design and incorporates a rebound valve adjustable via an integrated wheel or twist-adjuster. This allows drivers to precisely control body movements such as pitch and roll, enhancing cornering stability and overall vehicle dynamics. The spring rates are carefully selected for front (8.93 Kg/mm) and rear (12.23 Kg/mm) to complement the Dodge Challenger’s chassis characteristics.

Installation & Fitment:

The KW Variant 2 Coilover Kit is a direct fit for 2012 through 2018 Dodge Challenger RWD models equipped with Electronic Damping Control (EDC). Installation requires deactivation of the factory electronic damping system to ensure proper function of the coilovers. The kit is designed as a complete, ready-to-install solution with all necessary hardware included, supported by detailed installation and adjustment instructions.

Height adjustment is straightforward thanks to the trapezoid thread design and durable adjustment collars, allowing for easy ride height customization within the approved lowering range of 0.2 to 1.6 inches in the front and 0.8 to 2.2 inches in the rear.
